Toon Zone Talkback - "Futurama: Bender's Game" Hits Comedy Central on April 26, 2009

This is the talkback thread for "Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder" Hits Comedy Central on April 26, 2009.

Interesting that they're airing the fourth movie. I believe they haven't aired Bender's Game yet. I also thought this would have aired last month.

Yeah, that is weird. Why haven't they aired Bender's Game?

FYI, the 4th film isn't the end of the Futurama Universe: There's still the Bongo Comic book that's still being published, although it only comes out every two months.

I'm surprised that YTV and Teletoon are airing the multi-part version of Bender's Big Score. Last night I think was part 2.

Also, Billy West says that sales of the other titles in the Futurama direct-to-DVD series have been high enough that Fox has been talking about a potential 6th season.

I thought he'd been forced to retract that statement a few days later... or am I thinking of something else?

I don't know. I just found about this last week.

And once again I won't watch it because they're airing it on Sunday night. I haven't seen any of the Futurama movies yet because they always air them on Sunday night. That's a stupid time to air it. I mean, Sunday is such a competitive night for television. They could at least air it a few hours later so it doesn't compete with the networks primetime lineups.

Has anyone seen BBS and BWABB actually split up in the regular reruns yet? Do they air them as normal (with the intro slapped on the front), or is there some "Last time on Futurama..." prologue?...

I would like to point out that Comedy Central is airing Bender's Game, and not Into the Wild Green Yonder yet. I've seen promos for it already.
